Melbourne Central shot tower

Spectacular architectural picture of the Coops (Melbourne Central) Shot Tower article, although not very large, seems to meet the other requirements.

Weak Oppose. The subject looks great, but the image is slanted at an awkward angle. It seems that at a different time of day the image would be better. -- AJ24 16:40, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose quite small and there is something distracting in the top right hand corner. Childzy ^{(Talk|Contribs)} 17:37, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Oppose Image is too small to have much detail and resolution. A larger version of this would get my vote. --WikipedianProlific ^(Talk) 19:07, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
oppose too small and i find the dark object in the upper right very distracting--Vircabutar 19:20, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Ridiculously small and distracting thing in upper right corner. --Dschwen 20:57, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. I like the composition that AJ called "slanted", but I have to agree that the distracting thingy in the corner and the lack of resolution kill the chances of this image. - Mgm|^(talk) 21:04, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Same as above, the resolution is very bad.--Enano275 05:02, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - regretfully, I wish it had more resolution. HighInBC 02:06, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose -- agree, object at top right is a distraction. - Longhair 05:08, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment for what it's worth, the distracting thing is a balcony (see [1]). It's difficult ([2], [3]), but not impossible [4] to not get one in the shot. I had the same problem, but mine was at the bottom. Stevage 11:47, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- And in case anyone is curious, this [5] is a 3 part ultra-wide panorama that I took late last year showing just what it looks like. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 13:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Anyone who's lived in Melbourne will know how easy it is to take a photo like this... I'm sure I've got better ones myself but I wouldn't nom them for FP! 219.89.69.93
